New capability for indirect neutron capture measurements: The DICER instrument at LANSCE [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 The Device for Indirect Capture on Radionuclides (DICER) implements a new indirect technique for (n,γ) studies in which the neutron capture rate is determined from analysis of resonance neutron transmission data.

Computing Neutron Capture Rates in Neutron-Degenerate Matter
Universe, 2019 Neutron captures are likely to occur in the crust of accreting neutron stars (NSs). Their rate depends on the thermodynamic state of neutrons in the crust. At high densities, neutrons are degenerate.

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022 An approximate method for calculating the cadmium ratio of a cyclotron-based thermal neutron radiography system was developed. In this method, the Monte-Carlo code, MCNP6.2, was employed to calculate the neutron capture rates of Au-197, and the cadmium ...

The capture of neutrons by deuterons [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1948 Abstract The cross-sections for capture of neutrons by deuterons, involving emission of both electric and magnetic dipole radiation, are calculated using the wave functions obtained by Buckingham & Massey (1941) in the course of an application of the resonating-group structure method to the elastic scattering of neutrons by ...

Capture cross sections on unstable nuclei
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Accurate neutron-capture cross sections on unstable nuclei near the line of beta stability are crucial for understanding the s-process nucleosynthesis. However, neutron-capture cross sections for short-lived radionuclides are difficult to measure due to ...

Scientific Reports, 2022 While boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) depends primarily on the short flight range of the alpha particles emitted by the boron neutron capture reaction, gadolinium neutron capture therapy (GdNCT) mainly relies on gamma rays and Auger electrons ...

Neutron-capture measurement candidates for the r-process in neutron star mergers
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Neutron star mergers (NSMs) are one of the astrophysical sites for the occurrence of the rapid neutron capture process (r-process). After a merger, the ejected neutron-rich matter hosts the production of radioactive heavy nuclei located far from the ...

NEUTRON CAPTURES AND THE R-PROCESS [PDF]
The R-Process, 2004 The r-process involves neutron-rich nuclei far off stability for which no experimental cross sections are known. Therefore, one has to rely on theory. The difficulties in the predictions are briefly addressed. To investigate the impact of altered rates, a comparison of r-process production in hot bubble models with largely varied rates is shown. Due to

, 2018 We propose a new neutron-capture site in early metal-poor and metal-free stars of $\sim 20$--$30 \,\mathrm{M}_\odot$ that results from proton ingestion in the He shell during late stages of the stars' lives.
